Coud you please add the city Grand Junction to my nation? If you could, I'd like it to be in the center of that Northern bulb thing.

Just a quick map for pin-point purposes.

Main coastal cities in case they are no clear (can't really put more on due to space):
  1. Fredrikshavn
  2. Samsø

If it is decided only to put one coastal city, then it needs to be Fredrikshavn.

I'd like to claim the island roughly in the middle of the stretch of ocean between me and the Frescanian West Antilles. Could it be labelled Ascensión Island with Sucrecia or Scr. or something I don't know in brackets underneath. Either way make it sure it's obvious it is mine :p

I did this twice because I'm still comically inept at getting this sort of linking right (or just horribly out of practice, who knows)- but there it is.

Country Name: Hyperia
(Quasi) Capital: Port Redemption (red dot)
Green Dot: Goshen (officially Goshen City, but just Goshen)
Blue Dot: Elam Isle
Black Dot: Ten Bitter Heights

I would like to apply for the tiny city-state map spot by Ivernia and Fryslan. The capital and only city is Anhalt.

Colonies:

Name of Colony :- Palmer Islands
Name of Primary Country :- Free Occidentia
Established History :- The Palmer Islands were snatched up after President Hamilton ordered Joseph Palmer to lead a small amount of troops to secure the Island in 1801. Once secured, Palmer set up a military city and named it Palmer's Landing. President Hamilton immediately deployed sizable resources, troops, ships, etc. to make the Islands become a forward defense position from foreign threats. As time went on, the Islands became the gateway into the Confederacy, almost all shipping passed through Palmer's Landing on its way to Coplay. Today, the Islands maintain a sizable military presence, but mostly act as a vacationing point and trade pit stop.

Name of Colony :- Thorpe Island
Name of Primary Country :- Free Occidentia
Established History :- In order to ease trade with the nations of the world, President Hamilton ordered Carter Thorpe to go and secure the Island. With little resistance, Thorpe Island was officially added to the Confederacy as a colony in 1803. The Colony was set up as a pit stop and eventual refueling base for both military and trade ships in the area. The colony was open to any and all shipping. Today, Thorpe Island maintains its purpose as a refueling base for trading.

Name of Colony :- Occidentian Implarian Islands
Name of Primary Country :- Free Occidentia
Established History :- In an attempt to open up new trade in the East, President McCarthy declared that the islands were officially apart of the Confederacy in 1870. The locals resisted to an extent, but eventually calmed. The Occidentian Implarian Islands have their own government, as opposed to Thorpe Island and the Palmer Islands, which are under direct control of the Confederate Congress. Today, the Islands are used primarily as a ridiculously popular tourist area for Free Occidentia and a refueling port.

Name of Colony :- Onoko Islands
Name of Primary Country :- Free Occidentia
Established History :- Shortly after claiming the Occidentian Implarian Islands in 1870, McCarthy set his sights on the Onoko Islands, farther north. In 1873, McCarthy ordered the Navy to go and claim the Islands, however, it wasn't simple this time. The Oikawan Empire, concerned of Occidentian expansion into the Implarian, moved to defend the Islands. McCarthy refused to back down and a war ensued. The Palmer Islands and the Occidentian Implarian Islands played a imperative role in the war, however, the war was costly on Occidentia's part, and most people agreed the war was unnecessary. After securing the Islands, part of the peace accord was an agreement to not extend any farther, and such, Free Occidentia gained its final colony. Today, the islands serve as all others do, refueling and increasing trade. They maintain a small naval presence.

The new name for 'The Matanzas Isles' and my new colony requests.

Matanzas;
The greater portion of the large Matanzas Island in the Green Sea. Established as a Wasatch Protectorate since 1925, Matanzas is a great source of raw materials and food stuffs. Large sugar plantations and ranches Cris-cross the island. Culturally the Protectorate is dominated by the French Caucasians (known as Cajuns) that make up the majority of the population. The Mestizos (Spanish and Native mix) are a minority, but a strong one. Nowadays the Protectorate is a Constitutional Monarchy, with a struggle for political power going on between the Landed Elite, and the Monarchy. The French began settling the island after the first wave of Frescanian expansion into the Green Sea. The Cajun French came in search of wealth.

In the year 1920 President Huron was elected for his first five year term. Within his first year of office, Huron established himself as an Expansionist. With the purchase of the Green Sea Islands. And by the end of 1921, President Huron has set his sights on the Cajun people of the Kingdom of Matanzas. On January 18, 1922 President Huron ordered a diplomatically un-announced invasion of Matanzas. Wasatch's riflemen quickly swept through the land. Matanzas' armed forces had failed to modernize and suffered the consequences. In 1925, Queen Amanda Fournier IV surrendered. Since then Matanzas has been a Protectorate and sort of satellite state of Wasatch.

The Green Sea Islands; Purchased from the natives in 1920 for its beauty. Gambling, tourism, and real estate may be practically the only economic activity but those three areas thrive. The place of retirement for the rich, and the vacation spot of the whole country. The natives of the islands, known as the Galapo have been like an endangered species since the first waves of white immigration in the early 20's and 30's.

I want to retract my colony on Himyar, the Kersveld. Not enough good has come of it - and I don't want to be used as an excuse for mad land rushes.

Criteria for addition to the successive update :-

INACTIVITY

Those countries placed on the Inactivity List are subject to deletion on the next map update. As I will be removing non-active nations on each update, it will be the activity, or lack thereof, during the month preceding the date of the next map update that will determine whether or not a country will be deleted. A reasonable amount of role-play will prevent such deletion as will an announcement of departure on the Absence Thread, but only if there is a history of RP beforehand.


Inactivity List - Subject for deletion on NEXT update.

Country - Last In-Character Activity Date/ Absence Post Date.

Warning - Will be removed if in-character activity does not increase before next up-date.


ANNEXATIONS & COLONIAL ENTERPRISE

All applications to expand one’s map spot, either territorial annexation or colonial establishments, need to support them through this application process.

If you are applying for a colony, the number of the map spot will do, but should you be applying for a part of a map spot and/or a partition of another’s map spot then you will need to form a basic map that displays the boundaries of this new territory.

You will need to also post threads that demonstrate the campaign and success of one for any annexation, and the maps posted should reflect the scale of your claimed land; nothing additional to what has been role played shall be added to the map, no matter how tempting.

For colonial applications a link to the thread/s that establish the background and general out-of-character effort of the colony also need to be submitted.

A thread will be made soon detailing the process of establishing colonies in an in-character method.

I'm formally requesting a small change to the shape of Hyperia, as is (hopefully) shown above. The line doesn't have the be completely straight, but I would love to have something close to the green blob added on. I've spoken to a mod about it, but honestly don't know if the ok was given or not, so I'll just let somebody with special color powers speak on the ok-ness of this whenever they feel like speaking on it.

Also, seeing as how Communists are getting COLONIES...I kid.

*EDIT* Also, and to make it seem (entirely) as if I am buttering you up, the map does really look good.

Guess my application in the last update thread came in too late.

Since Zalonarus is moving out of his current spot soon, I'd like to apply for it:

In case it's relevant, the areas east of the Taras River are the People's Republic of Khitai, a Miroslavan client state, whereas everything west and south of it is the Soviet Republic of Miroslavl itself. The small bit in the north that's been cordoned off is going to be a disputed territory between myself, Jose, and Zalo.

Now's a good time as ever to formally apply, I suppose.



Capital is Wiślica, couldn't get the accent over the s in the map, so please do so in the map. Oświęcim also needs to be added as I copy-pastahed from Wikipedia, rather than on my lovely little map.

Finally, when Zalonarus finally applies for Greater Sarmatia's spot, I request that the border between us become dotted, and, if there's room, "Mezhist Union" be placed over both nations, hopefully including our individual names of Upper and Lower Cerulunia.

Sikandara and I have agreed to RP feuding 'colonial' puppet states on a small island in the Long Sea:

Location:


The northern bit is mine - the southern bit is Sikandara's. I'll put down the details for my half of the colony there:

Name: The Democratic Republic of Raigestan
Primary Country: Miroslavl
History:
In the early 1700s, after their defeat in an attempted invasion of Cerulunia, Miroslavl and it's Kozak allies turned their attentions south. Sikandara's control over the straights leading out to open ocean from Miroslavan ports was considered both an affront and an economic threat, and the then-Kingdom of Miroslavl decided to secure itself a base in the Long Sea and contest Sikandaran control of the straights.

Miroslavl unleashed it's Kozaks, who took to the open ocean with only slightly less skill than they had to horses on the steppe. Kozak pirates raided Sikandaran shipping and naval assets wherever they could be found, and a small invasion force landed on the Sikandaran island of Raigestan, seizing control of it and establishing it as an 'independent' nation. Kozak control of Raigestan would not last two decades - after some of the Kozak pirate lords operating out of Raigestan began attacking non-Sikandaran ships in search of greater wealth, the Kingdom of Miroslavl recalled the entire expedition and cut ties with those who remained. The Kozak pirates controlling Raigestan were swiftly defeated, and those who were not killed or executed fled south to Altai or west to the open ocean, never to be seen again.

Raigestan remained under Sikandaran control until the 20th century, when the now-communist Soviet Republic of Miroslavl sought once again to claim an island base in the Long Sea to protect it's maritime interests in the region. Working through intermediaries, the Soviet Republic sparked and funded a communist rebellion by local dissidents in the late 1950s, who with Miroslavan aid eventually succeeded in seizing control of the northern half of the island and having their independence formally recognized by the Sikandaran government.

With the island now free of Sikandaran control, the Miroslavan government quietly arranged for North Raigestan's revolutionary leaders to be paid off or killed in various 'accidents'. By the time North Raigestan had established a formal government in 1960, the island was under Miroslavl's full control, and the new Democratic Republic of Raigestan immediately swore "eternal friendship and alliance" with the Soviet Republic.

Miroslavl has repeatedly been condemned for it's occupation of North Raigestan and at one point the island was invaded by a foreign power, but no open conflict has occurred between Miroslavl and Sikandara itself since a brief war in the late 1700s.
